So magical to watch and see the beautiful nest emerge within the branches. You completely captured the gentle energy and just how miraculous nature 🙏🏻😍🙏🏻

[@maryannebaker4314]

Love the art and the story. So true you CAN be brave and afraid at the same time.

[@ShawnPetite]

Thank you... I'm brave and afraid every day!! Thanks for being here.

What a sweet present Mother Nature gave you through this stormy day and you describe it so beautifully with this peace !! I love it. Have a very good week. Love 💖🙏

[@ShawnPetite]

Thank you! It was a beautiful gift! Have a great week!

[@gloriajzucaro6960]

So touching to me at this time. A close family member is leaving us gradually this week after a massive stroke. But I guess it is in the nature of things. I love watching the small birds and up to the hawks in the area. Thank you for all you do with love.

[@ShawnPetite]

I'm so sorry for your family. I hope that you all will find some peace. Thanks so much for being here 🩷

[@yvonnesart]

I feel your heartache. Watching Shawn is a comfort.

We might call it nature... but truly, IF we believe in a God - HE has bigger plans for all those who have passed. I lost my Mother back in 2014. To see her end to suffering, was almost a relief. NOT a happy tme, but the pain finally ended. Still...MY Hope for Her is greater. And she believed the same thing I do - about God's Resurrection of the DEAD on a Perfect Earth. THIS study of the Scriptures opened my eyes to who God truly IS - HE is a loving God who wants what is best for his Creation. Do Not think for one minute - HIS purpose has changed. WE live short lives - and before we know it's time to face the Grave or Old age. I'm 73...and I do not like aging. On the Other hand... My Faith in Gods Purposes KNOWS that My life is not over once I die.... I just wait until His Purpose will be accomplished ... AND it will be Amazing Isaiah 65:17 , Psalms 37 Jerusalem was a holy place during those days - SO it was used as an example to God's People. SO do not think it means Jerusalem of today. AS an EXAMPLE of God's purpose - IF you want to read it - perhaps IT might show you How God's Plan for Mankind will provide a RICHNESS to Life than WE could only Imagine 17 For look! I am creating new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be called to mind,* Nor will they come up into the heart. 18 So exult and be joyful forever in what I am creating. For look! I am creating Jerusalem a cause for joy And her people a cause for exultation. 19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem and exult in my people; No more will there be heard in her the sound of weeping or a cry of distress.” 20 “No more will there be an infant from that place who lives but a few days, Nor an old man who fails to live out his days. For anyone who dies at a hundred will be considered a mere boy, And the sinner will be cursed, even though he is a hundred years of age.* 21 They will build houses and live in them,k And they will plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. 22 They will not build for someone else to inhabit, Nor will they plant for others to eat. For the days of my people will be like the days of a tree,m And the work of their hands my chosen ones will enjoy to the full. 23 They will not toil* for nothing,*n Nor will they bear children for distress, Because they are the offspring* made up of those blessed by Jehovah, And their descendants with them. 24 Even before they call out, I will answer; While they are yet speaking, I will hear. 25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together, The lion will eat straw just like the bull, And the serpent’s food will be dust. They will do no harm nor cause any ruin in all my holy mountain,”r says Jehovah. IF Shawn could give her thoughts on Life - Then Why can't I ???

Oh my gosh! I’ve been struggling with letting go of creating jewelry making…..since I’ve gotten into painting/collage. This video today, your words of wisdom and encouragement have been the catalyst I’ve been searching for to make the decision. Thank you for your words of wisdom and sharing with us your talents and beautiful creations.❤

[@ShawnPetite]

I'm so glad my words came at just the right time! Have a wonderful week!

[@Mysharona62]

Oh yes! This piece touched me to the core. I am currently in that in between space and working through what is next. That letting go is scary but I also know it is needed. Love how you added the texture bits to the nest to make it come to life. Blessings Shawn.

[@cindycreateforlife]

I too appreciate all the hard work that birds do to build nests, they are quite intricate structures! It would seem that she had not laid any eggs so she will happily rebuild better and stronger! Your piece is moving and helped you process that moment in time!💕🇨🇦

[@ShawnPetite]

Thanks Cindy! I think that is a quote I need to use. "Rebuild better and stronger" Hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!

[@cindycreateforlife]

@@ShawnPetite thank you, 🤣🤣. Sadly, we are leaving Spain Wednesday and flying home! We have enjoyed wintering in Spain so much but, you have to go home sometime!

[@debbiereed8341]

This is amazing! Wow, love it.

[@amandavdbergh2210]

This is so beautiful. I made a nest print from grass the other day, but knew it needed more texture. Thank you for this great idea.

[@ShawnPetite]

Have fun creating! Thanks for watching!

[@shelia5871]

Beautiful in so many ways! Thank you so much Shawn! Nature is always inspiring! I am lucky to live where I can feed and watch the birds...so many different kinds and they all get along...even taking turns to eat!

[@ShawnPetite]

Nature really is so much inspiration! Lucky you to get to see the birds everyday! Thanks for being here!
